Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\text{3 in}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 in = 190 ft

x in = 570 ft

We can use ratio and proportion to solve this problem.

[tex]\begin{array}{cccl}\dfrac{1}{x} & = & \dfrac{190}{570} & \\\\570 & = & 190x & \text{Mutiplied by lowest common denominator (570x)}\\3 & = & x & \text{Divided each side by 3}\\\end{array}[/tex]

The building will be [tex]\boxed{\textbf{3 in}}[/tex] tall in the scale drawing.
